Fondly referred to as Mimi, Mitchel Ozakpolor is no doubt busty and she loves it. She once was a banker but left it all for her acting dream in Nollywood a decade ago.
The actress says she never regrets leaving the corporate world for the entertainment industry.
She now reveals that her boóbs are her biggest asset claiming that she holds position one in list of the bustiest in Nollywood.
Take a read: some excerpts of the interview.
What part of your body is your best asset?
I detest being asked this question because everyone already knows my best asset. Even if I mention something else, they would know I’m just being economical with the truth because it is obvious.
I know I’m very busty, it is supposed to be my best asset. One good thing about me is that I really don’t flaunt my boóbs. I just wear dresses that I like and the boóbs flaunt, whether the neckline of my dresses are showing my cleavage or not.
But my cleavage is just obvious because my boóbs are massive. I think my boóbs are the biggest in Nollywood.
Don’t you think Corsy Orjiakor has the that record in Nollywood?
No, but people think she is. She is not. If I pack up my boóbs the way she packs hers, to be frank people won’t walk on the street, believe me.
I try to pack mine in such a way that it won’t be obvious and so that some guys won’t jump on me and start begging me to kiss them.
Have you experienced that before, a guy walking up to you and begging you to hug him?
Yes, they have been doing that to me. Some would beg me to just give them a hug. But I don’t see that as an embarrassment because I love my boóbs and they make all my dresses suit me.
When guys react that way, I don’t blame them because they love what they see. I know I have the hip and height to carry my boóbs.
At times when I walk in the street of Yaba, Lagos in particular, most of the guys there would be shouting ‘Jesus Christ all these boóbs for you alone? Are these all yours?’
They would be expecting me to answer them. I do answer them anyway. And they would hail me and say ‘yes mama I love that’.
I try to avoid bus stops because when guys see me, they always scream wow! And I do respond too wow! That is just my life.
If I start feeling bad about people’s reactions over my bóobs, it would not help matters. Many companies have approached me for adverts based on my boóbs. I know it feels good to have big boóbs. It gives you a lot of jobs
How do ladies react?
Some feel it is a curse while others wish to have as massive a bréast as mine. I don’t blame any lady who doesn’t know that huge boóbs are supposed to be good or make you feel good.
It is not their fault because they don’t have them. The truth is that big bóobs are good, they are a blessing. I don’t get angry or embarrassed with people’s reactions to my boóbs.
I do tell myself that if I were a guy and I am confronted with massive boóbs, I would also have reacted the way they are reacting to me.
This means that I understand why some guys would walk up to me, begging me to hug them 10 times. I don’t hug them, I just smile. I don’t, even my male friends, with my chest touching theirs.
I give them side hugging because most of them don’t have a genuine reason for hugging me.
Don’t people mistake you for Cossy Orjiakor?
Yes, many times they think I’m Cossy. I don’t know her one-on-one but I respect her for her boldness and daring nature because I’m not that daring.
The reason is because we are Africans; no matter how crazy you want to be, you have to remember where you are coming from.
If I should meet her now, I know I don’t have any right to give her advice but I would only ask her why she loves to flaunt her boóbs. Maybe there is something I need to know that I don’t know.
That has made her so popular that when I go out and some people ask, is that not Cossy Orjiakor? Some people don’t like her, while others do.
I tell you, she has a lot of fans because some people mistake me for her. They would be saying that is her now, na that yeye girl wey no get shame.
Then I would tell them no I’m not Cossy, I’m Mimi. I don’t hate her for that. I like her because she is bold and pretty too. Remember, it’s not easy to be busty. Let her enjoy herself jare.
Why do you say it’s not easy to be busty?
It’s because not everybody has it. I have some friends, in fact, a lot of people that are begging and praying to God everyday for bigger boóbs.
Mine is natural although when I drink Coca-Cola often, it increases my bóobs. If I drink it constantly, I would have to change my bra size because it makes my boóbs get bigger.
A lot of my friends did that, they drank and drank but it didn’t work for them. I tell you, it’s not easy to be busty.
Where is your tattoo?
I’m not a tattoo fan. Some ladies would put tattoo on their boóbs but I don’t want to because mine is big enough to be noticed. A friend said it is bad enough that it is mighty, why do you now want to make it more obvious?
Did Jim Iyke touch you there during the romance movie with him?
Before we started shooting, I pleaded with him not to touch my boóbs. He is my friend and we already had a rapport before that movie.
He said he must touch it, that it was a good opportunity to do so. I knew what he could do.
I started begging him and he promised he won’t do it. When we started the role, he just kissed me but he didn’t touch my boóbs. He kept to his promises.
Who else would you like to be paired with in romance roles?
For guys, I love Jim Iyke, Ramsey Noah; I have never done any job with Desmond Eliot but I think he is going to be fantastic. I like Mike Ezuruonye.
I have done something with Yemi Black; he was the bomb. Oh my God, I would like to do something with him again. The one I did with him wasn’t just romance, it was séxy.
He is cool; I mean that guy is perfect. His character can bring your character alive. I also like RMD, he is a big boy. I would like to do something with him. Most of our guys are good.
Who among these guys have you actually dated?
Right now I don’t have any boyfriend. I wouldn’t want to talk about this please. I have a lot of things that have really engaged me.
I’m trying to go into perfumery, trying to become a designer of my own. But that does not mean that if I find someone I want to date, why not?
I mean I would want to settle down someday, have kids but for now, I have not just walked into the guy. I have men in my life but nothing serious for now. Actually, I would like to keep my love life private.
